A Drop of South African Sunshine


Karen and Andy got engaged to one another in South Africa and they asked us if we could incorporate a little ray of South African sunshine into their wedding flowers...


How exciting! We had the opportunity to mix exotic pincushion protea with some wonderful hot pink gerberas, cherry brandy roses and a little pop of craspedia yellow.

Bride and Bridesmaid bouquets

The wedding took place mid-October amongst gorgeous Scottish scenery at the Lochside House Hotel, on the banks of Loch Creoch, New Cumnock. 

 Pretty little heart-shaped chairbacks



It took all our strength not to stick our fingers in the yummy jam and cream that was oozing out from in between the cake layers!

Autumn Delights at Eastwood House



Congratulations to Amy and Stuart who were married on a beautiful autumn day at the end of October! Kim and I had a fantastic time selecting a delicious array of seasonal flowers, pumpkins and gourds for their celebrations at Eastwood House, Glasgow.

These 'Mr & Mrs' pumpkins were created by the incredibly talented Alison of Scissors, Paper, Stones. Thanks Alison!



Amy's yummy bouquet featuring craspedia, ornithogalum, asclepias, cherry brandy roses, seed heads and some wonderful little explosions of carthamus.



Our new buttonhole holder - a vintage test rack, sitting on top of one of our newly salvaged tree stumps... Thanks Jimmy ;-)


Amy and Stuart gave us free reign to decorate lots of areas within the venue, including this brilliant fireplace.


 
And table centres good enough to eat!
